Pollution Prevention Assistance

Secondary spill containment at Union Twp fuel station

Ohio EPA requires that each Phase II community develop and implement an operation program that includes a training component and has the ultimate goal of preventing or reducing pollutants runoff from local government operations, including such activities as park and open space maintenance, fleet and building maintenance, new construction and land disturbances and storm water system maintenance (sewers and open channels).

Clermont County Storm Water Department staff offers assistance to townships and municipalities in order to establish operation and training programs that meet the requirements of the Phase II permit.  Programs can be tailored for communities with Best Management Practices (BMPs) related to their respective operations. For example, programs for parks and open space could focus on BMPs that reduce nutrient loadings and proper use of herbicides and pesticides. For more information regarding pollution prevention assistance, email John McManus, or call him at 732-7880.
